2018 Season Preview: #6 Washington University in St. Louis Bears

tl;dr:  Wash U didn’t have the greatest Fall, but it doesn’t matter. They’ve made 11 straight NCAA quarterfinals, and look for number 12 this year with multiple individual qualifiers too. I think that Wash U will be favored in at least two doubles positions in every match, and will be one of the three UAA…

ASouth’s NCAA Elite 8 Mish Mosh
